Anchorage Digital Becomes Day-One Custodian for $AZTEC

Anchorage Digital, America’s leading crypto platform for investors and innovators, today announced it will serve as a day-one custodian for the $AZTEC token that powers the Aztec Network.

Aztec is the privacy-native Layer 2 on Ethereum that leverages ZK technology to strengthen privacy across the onchain ecosystem. It gives developers nuanced privacy controls so that they can choose what aspects stay private and what goes public within a user’s transaction—unlocking new categories of applications. 

$AZTEC token custody will be available through the Anchorage Digital platform and through Porto, Anchorage Digital’s institutional-grade self-custody wallet.

Why Safeguard Your $AZTEC with Anchorage Digital?

Anchorage Digital's infrastructure provides the security and flexibility required for institutional participation:

  • Industry-leading security: Benefit from a custody solution that meets security standards for the world’s leading institutions.
  • Flexible custody: Choose the custody solution that meets your needs, whether that’s holding $AZTEC through Anchorage Digital’s custody or in self-custody through Porto with the same security standards.

“Aztec is paving the way for all builders to benefit from scalable, programmable privacy. As a day-one custody partner for $AZTEC, we are providing a secure bridge for institutions and asset holders to engage with a protocol that is advancing the future of onchain finance.”
- Nathan McCauley, Co-Founder and CEO, Anchorage Digital
